I started the Atkins Diet in July, after a family doctor friend recommended it. My own doctor is quite happy with the diet. I have lost 30 lbs with 40 to go, my husband has lost 50. My Type II diabetes is essentially gone, and I've stopped taking all medication for it, with the doctor's blessing. My blood pressure has dropped to well within the normal range.

The Atkins Diet is NOT about all the meat you can eat. The carbs I get are from eating veggies and salads. After healthly portions of them, I'm just not too hungry for much meat...

I plan on eating this way for the rest of my life. My health has improved too much to ever go back.

This is true. You can eat all the salmon and other "good for you fish" plus chicken and turkey. You don't have to eat beef floating in grease like the anti-Atkins people say we do. They also forget about all the vegetables we eat. BUT they talk up pasta which is nothing but white flour, water and salt. I sure that is good for no one.
